Foreign Trade Zone

Oshkosh is currently under the Brown County, Wisconsin, FTZ #167. Developed land in this 1,617-acre FTZ include the Southwest Industrial Park, Wittman Regional Airport and the Fox Valley Technical College Spanbauer Center.

Businesses outside of the designated FTZ can obtain sub-zone status to receive the same benefits. Sub-zone companies must meet specific FTZ requirements for storage, handling, processing or manufacturing of merchandise, and it must also make financial sense for the business. Utilizing calculator tools and working closely with the Green Bay Port Authority can help you determine if FTZs or sub-zones are right for your business. Companies in greater Oshkosh can apply for sub-zone status of FTZ #167 through the Port of Green Bay.
